When the tablet is connected, it will receive all information from the instruments and the navigation
software calculates the course to steer and drives the autopilot accordingly. Because the tablet is sending
NMEA data, the multiplexer routes this data exclusively to Out1. The autopilot will therefore receive
information from the tablet only.
When the tablet is not connected or the navigation software is not sending any data, the multiplexer
automatically routes the inputs to Out1, sending the data from the instruments to the autopilot. This
way, the autopilot will receive course information directly from the GPS.
